20 Meadow Road, $2.395 million. 1924, (unspecified) “renovations” 2010. I remember liking this house when my old firm had it in 2003 but it took a year (and another firm, when the owners got pissed off at us) to sell, because it was overpriced (and who set that price? Oh well, that’s how this business works). Bought for $1.560 in 2002, the owners tried for $1.725 before finally selling it for $1.568. As I said, I liked the house then – a little quirky, as might be expected in a house built in 1924 but perfectly livable and in a great location. I don’t know, yet, what the current owners have done to improve it but depending on how much they’ve done, $2.4 for Meadow in Riverside certainly seems like a reasonable price.

Taxes are so way off that it’s laughable. I think the town needs an emergency interim reassessment, and I’m surprised that all the folks in back country aren’t demanding it. To go on like this for another three years is outrageous.
